Ronda Rousey Gets Destroyed On Twitter After UFC 207 Loss To Amanda Nunes
Friday was a bad night for Ronda Rousey, and Twitter went ahead and made it worse.
The former UFC women’s bantamweight champion made her long-awaited return to the octagon after 13 months and promptly was knocked out in 48 seconds by reigning champ Amanda Nunes. The Brazil native took to Twitter after to embarrass Rousey further, and then the rest of the Twitterverse piled it on.

At least a few people made sure to remind everyone that Rousey’s defeat might not have been the worst in sports.

Still, there were a few athletes who came to Rousey’s defense.
Hope Rousey is fine mentally and spiritually after this fight. Most of you will never know the pressure! Yet y'all gone talk crazy smh

Ronda Rousey has a horrible team around her and should be fired. They're collecting paychecks and protecting her feelings and emotions.

But at the end of the day, we all were reminded that Rousey still is far more successful than most of us.
Ronda Rousey made 3 million to get knocked out in 48 seconds???
SIGN. ME. UP.
